City Center's Response to COVID-19

Overview

Green Initiative

Additional Efforts

City Center has partnered with Oak Cliff Bee Company, a community-focused Texas beekeeping organization, to install two thriving beehives—ruled by our honeybee Queens, Beeatrix and Beelizabeth—on The Grill’s patio in City Club. Home to thousands of hardworking bees, the hives transform an underutilized outdoor space into a vibrant urban habitat that tenants can enjoy while dining and observing the bees at work. This initiative supports a more eco-conscious Fort Worth by promoting pollination of surrounding urban flora and strengthening the local ecosystem, all while requiring minimal resources. Beyond producing honey that will be harvested and shared with City Center tenants at the end of the season—truly the sweetest and most local reward—the program also advances education and awareness about sustainable beekeeping practices, conservation, and the vital role bees play in our environment.

Electronics Recycling Program

We offer an electronics recycling program to our tenants, and collection is ongoing/as needed. The items collected may include PCs, LCD Monitors, Printers, UPS Batteries, CRT Monitors, LCD Televisions, Microwaves, etc.

In 2018, the EPA reported that US consumers and businesses generated 2.7 million tons of electronic waste, and only 24.9% of this waste was recycled. Once electronics reach the landfill, materials cannot be recovered, and hazardous substances can contaminate the soil and water.

According to the EPA,
“Recycling electronics helps reduce pollution that would be generated while manufacturing a new product and the need to extract valuable and limited virgin resources. Electronic recycling also reduces the energy used in new product manufacturing.”

What's the Buzz

Working in the City Center Towers has never been sweeter. We are home to two bee-utiful beehives ruled by our honeybee Queens, Beeatrix and Beelizabeth! We’re proud to take part in the movement for a more eco-conscious city by installing two beehives on The Grill’s patio in City Club. Here, our hives are home to thousands of bees who you can watch while eating lunch at The Grill. They are working hard preparing delicious honey that City Center tenants will have a chance to enjoy once it’s harvested. You can’t get more local honey than that!

This project is in collaboration with Oak Cliff Bee Company; a community-focused, Texas beekeeping company whose mission is to raise public awareness about bees’ vital role in our local ecosystem. In addition to tending to urban hives in the corporate environment, they actively support local schools, veterans, and first responders by sharing their beekeeping knowledge and practices to help inspire new bee enthusiasts.
